UPDATE The problem turned out to be the stupid idea of the TD5 engine have rubber seals on the botton bolts of the bell housing as the bolts go through into the sum as per the transit engine.One bolt had come very slightly loose probably as a result of the seal getting caught. All put right by...

Had my D2 tdi in the garage for a new clutch,duly fitted and off I went after they had problems and replaced the hydraulics. Did about ten miles and on arrival at home noticed a pool of oil beneath the car,checked and found it to be from the bell housing/engine join,it dumped the entire engine...

Yes we changed both seals and still water came in,I can only suspect the the frame has been damaged in the past.

If you read my letter,you would see that nthis had already been tried

I have had nothing but trouble with the factory fitted showers,tried a reseal that helped but still water leaked in,yes the drains are OK. Anyway after deciding that we dont get enough sun to make them a useful asset,I decided to put them where they belong in the scrap bin,that was good I was...

Yes yes the front clutch has failed

Anyone suggest a good place in S.Wales to get a 4L Thor auto box repaired,I am near Carmarthen or anyone got a known good s/h unit for sale

Tried all relevent reasons as to why this would not start,used Hawkeye which only showed up Crank Sensor which has been replaced. Have no power to fuel pump,volts ok as are all fuses and realays,any bright ideas. Paul

Thanks for clearing that up,it seems it became compulsory for diesel as well after 2004

We remind you that the EOBD standard is governed by legislation that states that vehicles must be compatible from a specific date

OK the values are as follows 16-4 10.5v 16-5 9.8v 16-Earth 10.5v I have lost the use of the nanocom so tried a cheap reader which gave the following faults. 1/Manifold circuit pressure...

Thanks I will do that tomorrow and let you know the results

Thanks for the info,I will check thaat out,its strange as the fuel pump runs and all dash lights seen to work,engine cranks over but does not start. The nanocom is working fine on another D2 so other than you info I am at a loss. Paul

Yes new battery and leads are clean and tight

Thanks very much for your help. Paul

Yes that was the one I changed to be on the safe side,I am starting to wonder if the ecu is faulty

Yes I have checked every fuse on the vehicle and can find no proplems and the nano works fine on another td5.as a point which fuse is most likely to give this problem as I will try replacing it

Yes exactly,no light up at all

I have a 2000 Disco TD5 which has run well until last week when it developed a misfire over 3000rpm, it would still run OK until I had to move it to let a truck into our yard.Came back out later and it would not start so contacted a friend with a Nano to find the fault and no activation of the...

I returned home yesterday after a run and everything was normal,had to turn round and reversed,when I engaged forward no drive in any gear high or low,reverse still working. Anyone had a similar problem with ideas of the fault. Vehicle is a 2000 4l petrol
